Looking for a 5900x myself, came across the site Overclockers UK has plenty of 5800x

Note that despite the listing price of £379.99, adding 5800x to the basket and select Australia as a destination, the final price is £344 (including DHL shipping) (A $624.20).

Goods total £316.66*

Delivery costs £27.57*

Total order value £344.23

They also have 5600x in stock but not shipping to Australia for some reason.

I didn't pull the trigger myself but if someone gets one successfully, please let me know.

Update: It's even cheaper now. Down from A$624.2 to ~A$606 depending on the exchange rate of your payment.

        No eta yet. They have indicated on Twitter that they have a backlog of work and orders are slightly delayed. I’ve received confirmation of the order - no eta yet.

          A large amount of the huge wave of low ratings they have received say they advertise having stock they don't have, take the money and then delay endlessly until they finally get stock.

          • tkotk on 21/01/2021 - 20:33

            @lpg17: A lot of them seem to be gaming chairs and 30xx series gpus. They also offer a simple cancellation process via an online form so if anyone has doubts after purchasing, just ensure you submit that form.

          Under $1,000 it is supposed to be the retailer who pays the GST, but if they do less than $75,000 pa in Australian business they may be exempt.

        i looked it up:
        However, From 1 July 2018, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) may be collected by overseas vendors of such low value goods when imported from overseas by consumers in Australia. GST will be charged at the point of sale and not at the border. https://www.abf.gov.au/buying-online/buying-online

            @Fishesass: DHL doesn’t charge you the retailer does, if customs finds a shipment that has no gst they will hold on to the shipment until you pay it, this is 10% GST + the admin fees of around $50

              @viper8548: But only if it's over $1000 AU. Otherwise they're breaking the law as it's not their responsibility to collect it at the border when under $1000 AU. That's the retailers job.

              • viper8548 on 20/01/2021 - 21:35

                @Clear: How does the government enforce this on overseas retailers? how do they even know how much to collect?

                • Clear on 20/01/2021 - 22:15

                  @viper8548: How do they enforce tax on big corporations like Google? They're hoping stores will do the right thing and many have.

              +4

              @viper8548: Customs will not hold a shipment with a value of less than $1000 for the reason GST hasn't been paid in accordance with the GST on low value imported goods rules. The ATO is responsible for regulation of the measure, not the Australian Border Force.

              • viper8548 on 20/01/2021 - 21:25

                @Plutonus: ahh i see i must’ve had bad luck, good to know. Thanks

              • Jimbuscus on 20/01/2021 - 21:30

                @Plutonus: The ATO should be chasing the retailer, imagine if the store charged you GST but didn't pay it, they would be chasing the company either way.

                I assume the $1,000 limit is to shift responsibility if that happens.

      • Jimbuscus on 20/01/2021 - 21:26

        TobydealsAU appeared to be avoiding GST, both me and a friend received out $300 phones without issue. My belief is that they closed down the AU store despite the UK one staying up so that they could make another store to avoid the $75,000 GST turnover limit.

        • Punkboy on 20/01/2021 - 21:32

          It's not to do with $75k, it's to do with operating in Australia and Australian govt having jurisdiction to act against them.

      • spacellama on 20/01/2021 - 22:22

        so 5800x probably over kill for my setup?

    • munted on 21/01/2021 - 01:57

      So Techspot recently did an article comparing several CPUs:

      AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
      Intel Core i5-10400F
      Intel Core i9-10900K
      AMD Ryzen 5 3600
      AMD Ryzen 9 3950X

      This 5x CPU comparison was deliberately pared with non top of the line GPU, in this case a AMD 6800 which is unlike most reviews which do their CPU reviews with the fastest GPU availiable i.e an RTX 3090. So keep in mind that the slower your GPU is, the less difference a faster CPU will make. They found that testing 16 different games at 1080p showed a Ryzen 5 5600X was only 9% faster than a Ryzen 5 3600. At 1440p this drops to a 4% difference and no difference between the two AMD CPUs at 4k resolution.

      Given that an AMD 6800 is about 10% (at 1080p) to 25% (at 4k) faster than an RTX 2080 Super you'll see even less difference between a Ryzen 5 5600X and a Ryzen 5 3600 with your graphics card. If you game at 1440p or higher you really won't be able to notice the difference and given this is OzBargain I'm sure you can find something better to spend the savings on, i.e. something which you will actually notice, tech related or not.

      • legeartis on 21/01/2021 - 05:28

        What about streaming or any other background apps that can affect performance? Would the 5600x outperform the 3600 ?

      • spacellama on 21/01/2021 - 10:04

        Thanks heaps for this! My current CPU is quite low end and bottlenecking some titles, so I might grab this. (Ryzen 3 3300X)

        • ItsMeAgro on 21/01/2021 - 11:54
          +2

          Ryzen 3 3300X is very similar to Ryzen 5 3600 in game benchmarks (and sometimes 3300x is slightly faster).

          I'd do more research if I were you. Chances are you will see no major difference in most/all games, even with the very top 5xxx X CPUs.

      • MrPariah on 21/01/2021 - 23:08

        So I won't really see a big fps bump going from a R5 2600 to a 5600X whilst using a GTX 1070? Muh heart

      • AlienC on 23/01/2021 - 07:50
        +1

        Nice article and great write up I commend you for doing so and giving back to the community.

        Personally I am getting something above a 5600x because I feel like I deserve it and also because I promised myself I would splurge a little on my next build since my first build in over a decade was a sff low end experiment build to run 4k (pro tip it works but it also does not work lol.. low fps at 4k is not fun but it is interesting to know we have low profile cards for small form factor cases).

        I told myself then I would get a 5800x but honestly now I am telling myself a 5900x might be the final one since the machine will last at least 5 years because I know I am lazy and hate changing things too much so it will basically keep going until we see a 6080 ti minimum most likely will make a new build in the nvidia 7000 series debut or at least when it is announced.

        Researching now if a 5950x will do anything for me at all but the price jump is like $400 or something so probably not.

        The extra cpu power should help with my overkill range of background monitoring apps and just tons of apps in the backgrounds from gaming clients to quality of life programs also it will have the same effect some people get by painting red stripes on their car to make them feel faster or whatever.. the higher tier cpu will give a sense of encouragement and confidence to me I feel and I will be able to rationalise a lot of things and not say oh if i had a faster computer then I could do xyz.. well no I will have a faster computer so I should be able to do xyz with no excuses no exceptions.. yeah at this point it is not even completely about performance any more but just being able to believe in myself to start a project or try my hand at something because I will have that beast machine I have always wanted since I was like 12.. yeah time flies.. it has taken me two decades to make enough money to achieve my dreams but now that I am here I have no idea what I want to do with it.. life is funny like that you think you know what you want and then you finally get there and you don't even know anything anymore.. anyways if anybody has any information on whether faster cpu's help with running games and background stuff let me know because that is the only use case I can think it will help me in besides maybe streaming and gaming at the same time.. I don't really edit much so honestly the improvements in the productivity sector won't see much happiness from me.

        ah well such is life

I called them as well and they said they have a couple pre-orders and none of them fulfilled yet. Also no ETA on when stock will arrive.

      They seem to be actively responding to people’s order queries on FB. Worst case ensure you pay via PayPal or your CC and make a claim if it’s unsent.

        Yeah I told myself to just go for 5900x so I can have a bit more time before I have to sell it.

        5950x hard to justify the price jump is like $400 almost you need to be making money from your workstation to justify that like a streaming pc or editing machine or something to cut the processing times down.. time is money friend.

    Those reviews are concerning and cause hesitancy and restraint in ordering.
